+By default, the case sensitivity of \fB@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@\fR differs somewhat
+between UNIX-like systems and Windows. WIM images may (but usually do not) have
+multiple files with the same case-insensitive name. Internally, wimlib
+stores filenames as case-sensitive, but on Windows paths
+actually provided by the user for use in a WIM image (e.g. for extracting,
+adding, renaming, or deleting files) will be treated as case-insensitive in
+order to get the "expected" behavior. This differs from the default behavior on
+UNIX-like systems, where such paths will be treated as case-sensitive. Note
+that with case insensitively, a path component may in general be ambiguous due
+to multiple files or directories having the same case-insensitive name. In such
+cases, if there is a file or directory with an exactly matching name, it is
+chosen; otherwise, one of the case-insensitively matching file or directories is
+chosen arbitrarily.
+.PP
+The default behavior can be overwritten by explicitly setting the environmental
+variable \fBWIMLIB_IMAGEX_IGNORE_CASE\fR to 1, in which case such paths will be
+treated case insensitively, or 0, in which such paths will be treated case
+sensitsively.
+.PP
+Regardless of these settings, options and non-path arguments must be specified
+in lower case.
